315–321 East 12th Street

The street façades retain decorative masonry and regularly arranged windows. Inside, entrance halls lead to prewar stairwells that serve the upper apartments. There is no elevator. The depth of the buildings produces homes with different arrangements of street-facing, rear and side windows.

Apartment layouts include windowed kitchens and bathrooms, dining alcoves and living rooms with high ceilings. Some residences have light from two or three directions. Exposed brick appears in renovated interiors, and hardwood flooring remains a common feature.

Renovations have produced several different approaches to the original room arrangements. Some homes retain a separate kitchen, while others connect the kitchen with the living and dining area. Two-bedroom plans can place both sleeping rooms away from the principal living space. Larger ground-floor layouts avoid the upper-floor stair climb while providing a different relationship to the street and rear of the property.

The apartment inventory also includes installed washer/dryers. Their presence in an existing home should be distinguished from the cooperative's approval process for adding new equipment. A past renovation elsewhere in the building doesn't mean a new plumbing layout is pre-approved.

PLUTO identifies the same cooperative corporation as owner of both tax lots. The buildings should therefore be understood as a single ownership organization with two street addresses. A buyer's exact entrance and floor location determine the physical route to the home; the corporate name encompasses both houses.

The resident superintendent serves the cooperative, with virtual entry and a package room supporting deliveries. Bicycle storage is available, and private storage is offered separately according to availability. The common services belong to a much larger ownership group than a single converted townhouse.

At 315 East 12th Street, the tax lot is Class 2 with no building-wide abatement. The existing floor area sits slightly above the mapped residential FAR. Its six-story walk-up form and older masonry envelope remain central to the building's operating responsibilities, alongside the shared staffing and entry systems.
